The Future of the Downs

[Hookbill the Goomba]

An obvious one...

Children of Hurin Chapter by Chapter discussions? That might be interesting, but would it be very much different to the chapter discussion in Silm?

[Volo]

Thought about that one too. I doubt that it will be coming very soon, but one day...

[Rune Son of Bjarne]

I predict that this thread will eventually be forgotten. . . damn, was I too late again!?

Then I predict that Hookbill's activities in the mirth section will become so immense and famouse, that he will eventually live of selling his own merchandice. There will be made several telly-shows called "Crazy About Hookbill" and "Meet the Hookbills", unfotunately this will all go to his head and he will die in a massive joke-explosion.

At this time the downs will be world famouse and known as "The Birthplace of Hookbill" which means an 2000% increase of members.

I predict that, eventually, The Barrow Wight will go mad and change the background from black to pink, the writing from green to yellow and the smilies into severed dog heads.

It's either that or a new logo;

Goodness me Hookbill if the Barrow Wight went mad and do as you say, I think I'll recruit my brother and force him to read LotR.

I predict that some of us will go on hiatus and come back after a bit. I think I left when the werewolf thing began, and that was because I couldn't understand how it goes. I still don't. But then I don't even know why I came back. I got tired of Gaia online, I suppose

[TheGreatElvenWarrior]

I predict that I will go so crazy over the Barrow-Downs that I will convert my dad one day and he will be a member...

I also predict that I will either not get married because of the Barrow-Downs and my time spent here, or my future husband and children will be begging me to get off of the Barrow-Downs so that they can do things on the computer that very bad things will happen.

But predicting something that doesn't involve myself personally...

I predict that someday Rune will become a famous movie star and take over the media. (Except for the only real newspaper)

Sadly, this is already reality for SOME Barrow-downers.

Anyway, I predict that The Great Elven Warrior will post so many times, in so many threads, that she will have to be thrown out of the Downs in order to restore peace.

I also predict that Hookbill will start putting out a daily newspaper before October 2011. And that the Phantom and Alien comic strip will be run in all major newspapers. AND that Lady Great will make millions selling John Phillis T-shirts.

I'm not that bad, am I?

Anyway, I already have the design for the t-shirt, I draw a rather bad John Fillis though... So I just had to label him.

[Laurinquë]

Yes you are.

In addition, I predict that The Phantom will start his own Barrow-Downs newspaper that will compete ruthlessly with The Downer.

[the phantom]

The only way I could compete with Hook's paper would be to kidnap him and force him to do the layout and such for mine. I haven't the slightest clue how to do any of that.

And to actually produce one same day every week! I'm not nearly consistent and organized enough for that. I work in spurts.

I predict Phantom & Alien will one day be seen on comics pages throughout the land, and Hookbill will sit around on a pile of money.
